Welcome! A few years back, I saw an old MGB for sale on the side of the road (when I was living in WV). It had been pretty much fully restored and was a beautiful car, though I didn't (and still don't) have the ability to go out and just buy one for giggles currently. Ah well, still a beautiful car.

Well, I fled WITH the job. I've always wanted to try living in different parts of the country. When the opportunity presented itself, my boss sent me down here for 4 months to work and try it out, after which I moved here permanently.

No state income taxes, no food tax (grocery) and much much better area for my outdoor recreational hobbies mean that it was a no-brainer. Oh and lower cost of living overall was definitely a plus.

My aunt lives in DFW somewhere...

I've lived in a few places: Illinois (30 years), Alabama (the longest eight years of my life), Connecticut (2 years), and now Norfolk, VA.

All I really need are cool people to hang with. Everything else is small stuff.

Now, if I just had time to haul my 'scope out and do some deep-sky observing again....
